  • Frequently Asked Questions & Answers Reopening East West
    Frequently Asked Questions & Answers Reopening East West Runway Q: How many runways does Sydney Airport have? A: Sydney Airport has three runways: • East-west runway, also known as runway 07/25 • Main north-south runway, also known as runway 16R/34L • Parallel north-south runway, also known as runway 16L/34R Q: When are the three runways typically used? A: The Australian Government agency responsible for air traffic control – Airservices Australia – manages runway usage to ensure safety. Weather – especially wind direction and strength and rain – is a major factor in deciding which runways can be safely used for take-off and landing. Aircraft generally take-off and land into the wind, or with minimal tail wind. Based on wind direction, air traffic control will decide which runway is used at any given time. However, the decision to take-off or land ultimately rests with the pilot-in-command of the aircraft. Q: What is “noise sharing” and how is it implemented? A: At Sydney Airport, the Australian Government’s noise sharing policy – known as the Long Term Operating Plan, or LTOP – also influences when a particular runway is used. The LTOP is a program to manage aircraft noise from Sydney Airport. It aims to make sure flights are sent over water and non-residential land, as much as possible. Where this is not possible, it aims to share noise across communities in Sydney and provide periods of respite from noise. It provides ten different ways of using the airport’s three runways and associated flight paths, some of which involve use of the east-west runway.

  • Constructing Time and Space in the Garden Suburb
    1 Constructing Time and Space in the Garden Suburb lon Hoskins Allan Ashbolt began his contribution to Me anj in' s 1,9 6 6' G o dzone' symposium with a portrayal of Australian 'reality': Behold the man-the Australian of today-on Sunday morn- ings in the suburbs, when the high decibel drone of the motor- mower is calling the faithful to worship. A block of land, a brick veneer, and the motor-mower beside him in the wilder- ness-what more does he want to sustain him. In Ashbolt's suburbia we have wilderness and garden, the pioneer and his Victa, linked-albeit ironically-to material and spiritual sustenance. The mowers proceed to drown out 'the plaintive clanging of the church-bells . [and] swell into a mechanised pagan chorus'.l They become both literally and symbolically the intrusive machines in the Edenic garden of Ausrralian radicalism, which Ashbolt maintains 'went up a cul-de-sac in the first decade of this century'.

  • Graham Clifton Southwell
    Graham Clifton Southwell A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirement for the degree of Master of Arts (Research) Department of Art History Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences University of Sydney 2018 Bronze Southern Doors of the Mitchell Library, Sydney A Hidden Artistic, Literary and Symbolic Treasure Table of Contents Abstract Acknowledgements Chapter One: Introduction and Literature Review Chapter Two: The Invention of Printing in Europe and Printers’ Marks Chapter Three: Mitchell Library Building 1906 until 1987 Chapter Four: Construction of the Bronze Southern Entrance Doors Chapter Five: Conclusion Bibliography i! Abstract Title: Bronze Southern Doors of the Mitchell Library, Sydney. The building of the major part of the Mitchell Library (1939 - 1942) resulted in four pairs of bronze entrance doors, three on the northern facade and one on the southern facade. The three pairs on the northern facade of the library are obvious to everyone entering the library from Shakespeare Place and are well documented. However very little has been written on the pair on the southern facade apart from brief mentions in two books of the State Library buildings, so few people know of their existence. Sadly the excellent bronze doors on the southern facade of the library cannot readily be opened and are largely hidden from view due to the 1987 construction of the Glass House skylight between the newly built main wing of the State Library of New South Wales and the Mitchell Library. These doors consist of six square panels featuring bas-reliefs of different early printers’ marks and two rectangular panels at the bottom with New South Wales wildflowers.

  • The Great Property Crime Drop: a Regional Analysis
    NSW Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research Bureau Brief Issue paper no. 88 July 2013 The Great Property Crime Drop: A regional analysis Don Weatherburn and Jessie Holmes Aim: To describe and discuss regional variation between parts of NSW in the rate at which theft and robbery offences have fallen. Method: Percentage changes in rates of offending in robbery and various categories of theft were calculated for the period 2000 to 2012. Changes in the extent to which rates of crime across areas have become more similar were quantified by comparing the standard deviation in crime rates across areas in 2000 to the standard deviation in crime rates in 2012. Product moment calculations were used to measure (a) the extent to which areas with high crime rates in 2000 also had high crime rates in 2012 and (b) the extent to which areas with the highest crime rates in 2000 had the largest falls in crime in 2012. Results: The fall in property crime and robbery across NSW between 2000 and 2012 has been very uneven; being much larger in Sydney and other urban areas than in rural areas. The fall in theft offence rates ranges from 62 per cent in the Sydney Statistical Division (SD) to 5.9 per cent in the Northern SD. Similarly, the fall in robbery rates ranges from 70.8 per cent in the Sydney SD to 21.9 per cent in the Northern SD. In some areas some offences actually increased. The Murray, Northern, Murrumbidgee, North Western, Hunter and Central West SDs, for example, all experienced an increase in steal from a retail store.

  • South Eastern Sydney Local Priorities
    Targeted Earlier Intervention Program Sydney, South Eastern Sydney and Northern Sydney South Eastern Sydney District Local Priorities We will take a local approach We know that every local community is different and has distinct needs and priorities. Local knowledge is crucial to identifying and addressing these needs. That’s why we’re taking a local approach to recommissioning for Targeted Earlier Intervention (TEI). The new TEI program will focus on collecting data so you can learn more about your local community. This will help you to identify needs, as they change, in your area. As the evidence grows, you’ll be able to adapt your service to what works in your community. This is crucial to supporting children, young people, families and communities experiencing, or at risk of experiencing, vulnerability in NSW. Department of Communities and Justice (DCJ) Districts will work with you to identify the needs and priorities of your community. We will look at: local priority groups – who needs the services most in your community? location – where in your local area are the services needed most? service type – what kinds of services will work in your area? This evidence-based snapshot outlines the main priority groups in your District. This will help you to plan services that can make a real difference in your local area. Local Priorities for South Eastern Sydney District In no particular order 1. Children, young people and families or carers affected by mental ill-health, substance misuse, separation, or domestic and family violence 2. Children, young people and families with multiple risk factors 3.

  • Phillips, Michael
    Australian Earthquake Engineering Society 2013 Conference, Nov 15-17 2013, Hobart, Tas Measuring Bridge Characteristics to Predict their Response in Earthquakes Michael Phillips1 and Kevin McCue2 1. EPSO Seismic, PO Box 398, Coonabarabran, NSW 2357. Email: [email protected] 2. Adjunct Professor, Central Queensland University, Rockhampton, Qld 4701. Email: [email protected] Abstract During 2011 and 2012 we measured the response of the Sydney Harbour Bridge (SHB) to ambient vibration, and determined the natural frequencies and damping of various low-order resonance modes. These measurements were conducted using a simple triaxial MEMS acceleration sensor located at the mid-point of the road deck. The effectiveness of these measurements suggested that a full mapping of modal amplitudes along the road deck could be achieved by making many incremental measurements along the deck, then using software to integrate these data. To accommodate the briefer spot-measurements required, improved recording equipment was acquired, resulting in much improved data quality. Plotting the SHB deck motion data with 3D graphics nicely presents the modal amplitude characteristics of various low order modes, and this analysis technique was then applied to a more complex bridge structure, namely the road deck of Sydney’s Cahill Expressway Viaduct. Unlike the single span of the SHB, the Cahill Expressway Viaduct (CHE) dramatically changes its modal behavior along its length, and our analysis system highlights a short section of this elevated roadway that is seismically vulnerable. On the basis of these observations, the NSW Roads & Maritime Services (RMS) indicated that they will conduct an investigation into the structure at this location.

  • Corridor Estates
    Corridor Estates In the 1970s, the Commission also developed a number of smaller estates along the Liverpool – Campbelltown corridor at suburbs including Macquarie Fields, Airds, Minto and Claymore. The development of these so called ‘corridor estates’ coincided with a general move away from developing the large-scale, low density estates that typified the 1950s and 60s; focus was placed instead on the development of medium density suburbs utilising the townhouses typology first used at Mount Druitt. Figure 97 – Proposals for the Macquarie Fields ‘corridor estate’, dated 1970-71 Source: The Housing Commission of New South Wales Annual Report, 1970-71, p. 24. These estates, the first being Macquarie Fields, were characterised by a smaller overall area of development, a high percentage of townhouses, and the use of the ‘Radburn’ style layout. During this time, townhouses in the ‘Radburn’ layout were also incorporated into some of the older neighbourhood estates, including Windale. URBIS SSP_WATERLOOMETROQUARTER_HERITAGEIMPACTSTATEMENT_FINAL APPENDICES (UPDATED) Micro-Estates The 1980s saw further evolution of the ‘public housing estate’ as conceived and developed from the 1940s onwards, with the Commission deciding in 1975, for the first time, to redevelop parts of its own housing stock. The principal example of this was the introduction of a micro-estate in to the established public housing at Villawood/East Fairfield; a number of earlier fibro cottages were demolished to make way for a ‘micro-estate’ planned in the ‘Radburn’ style. The cottages set on a conventional street grid were replaced with townhouses and maisonettes that faced away from the streets, had common driveways, and small private streets.
